The Shearwater was seen again by myself and a few others got on it but it was microscopic, shearwatering at the limit of the horizon. No id has been made. A good number of Jaegers were seen today including several Parasitic (including adults) and a juvenile Long-tailed Jaeger. Another highlight was an adult Black-legged Kittiwake identified by Brandon Holden.
Tomorrow looks like a promising day for the hardy. Winds are supposed to be strong, the only issue will be the rain. Maybe the shearwater will come closer for better looks. Directions: Directions Qew niagara to Woodward turn right on Woodward towards Eastport and right onto vanwagners beach road. Come to Lakeland tower. Another option is Hutches Restaurant which may provide cover from the rain but the sight lines are not as good.
